Who is a good candidate for ultra high profile??
Answer: Why didn't my surgeon tell me about ultra high profile implant?? I have used them on occasion in patients who wanted a larger volume than could be reasonably be placed on an individual with smaller dimensions.Kenneth Hughes, MDLos Angeles, CA

Answer: Ultra high implants I find this implant not that useful. Made originally for the reconstructed breast and women who want a very artificial appearing breast. Many women I have seen have had these exchanged.

Answer: Why didn't my surgeon tell me about ultra high profile implant?? Generally speaking, ultrahigh profile breast implants ( that have a very narrow diameter and relatively significant projection parameters) are useful for very few patients. These patients tend to be small framed and are looking for relatively “round, fake” outcomes. For most patients, in my practice, high profile or moderate profile plus, breast implants tend to meet patients objectives best. Of course, your plastic surgeon will be your best resource when it comes to receiving more precise/relevant answers to questions. I hope this helps.

Answer: Ultra High These implants are rarely needed except for reconstruction. Your surgeon no doubt felt they would not achieve your goals and so did not wish to cloud the consent process with irrelevant information. In general the result is equal to what breast tissue you have plus the implant. If you have reasonable breast projection then an ultra high implant may look fake or result in excess pressure on your breast tissue when can lead to thinning out of the breast and subsequent problems in revisional surgery in the future. Best wishes

Answer: Ultra-high profile Typically, a surgeon will choose whatever implant is the proper dimensions to achieve the end result that patient desires. There is nothing good or bad about one profile versus another, it is just which implant will best meet the goals in that individual patient. Probably, your surgeon did not feel ultra-high was the best choice to give you the end result look you desired.
